Whiff of Joy Challenge #14

I have been wanting to do a WoJ challenge, but did not have any WoJ stamps! *sigh* Then, the Blog Fairy *aka Cindy @ Heart's Delight Cards* chose my name for her rockin' Blog Candy! I went to the post office this morning to get it and I was so excited I pee'd myself almost pee'd myself! Inside that wonderful box was a WoJ stamp...just for me. *sniff* I ran home, well I DROVE home (@ the speed limit of course...hi honey!) and pulled out my stuff to see what I could come up with. This challenge was to use the colors purple and green. I used the Willow with Hot Chocolate stamp and colored it with my MS Art Markers. Had to fudge on the skin color because I don't have anything "skin" colored! LOL Card stock is SU, DP and mat is from DCWV stacks: Wedding, Text Prints and Mat Stack, respectively. Ribbon is MS that I got on super-clearance at Michael's (which, as you may already know, just makes my day!) The faux-Primas came from the floral section at Wally-world (also clearance *smile*) I don't have that handy-dandy ticket corner punch, so I just trimmed with scissors *gasp!* Kinda scary! I also used my new SU piercing template & mats for the edges. I just love this sticker and so I used it with some more DP and mat, along with a couple of dewdrops, just for good measure.

*Is it even possible to OVER embellish?... I don't think so!) Now, I need to get my hiney in gear and link it to WoJ before I miss it!

*p.s. I did not realize until just now that if you look at the bottom of the card, the only text in that lovely "friend" DP that is readable says, "No good!" LOL... NOT my intention, I assure you.*

Ta-Da!

Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Shannon and I am an imperfect disciple of Christ, but I am striving every day to be more like Him. The day that I surrendered my life completely to Christ was the day my life truly began. If you want to know more about what Christ did for me, or what He can do for you, please contact me! I love to share my story. I am also wife to Justin, mom to Katie(13), Josiah(6) and Seth(5), and human slave owned by 5 spoiled kitties named Jag, Little Miss, Shadow, Hardin Jefferson and Skippy Jon Jones! I do have to work (to support my creative pursuits!), but thankfully, I like my job. I love getting invitations to other blogs, so please invite me to see yours!
Blessings!
